Thanks. I should have done a bit more work myself, but if you still have patience with me, I want to report that I did as you described, but now both the delele (ascii DEL) and the backspace (control-H) keys are doing what the backspace key is doing (i.e., deleting character to the left of the cursor). I want to delete key to delete character to the right of the cursor. Thanks again for your kind help. This message posted from opensolaris.org
